new organization to render Ireland more eff
fectivc assistance in the near future. The
new organization is to be known as the Pa
triotic Irish Exiles. Prof. Mezzerof was

pointed to draft constitution and prepare a

THE VICTIM PLOT.
A Wronged Husband Charged with
Poisoning to Got Him Out of the

Wronged Husband Charged with
Poisoning to Got Him Out of the
Way.
FARMINeToN, Me-, Aug. 23.-Abner
Searles, who was arrested on a charge of
poisoning the family of Elijah Locklin in
Rangeley with Paris green, confessed that he
placed the poison in their food, but that he
did it at the instigation of one j. Wesley
Durham, who agreed to pay him So if he
would put the whole family out of the way
Upon this statement Durham was taken into
custody and arraigned at Phillips to-day
charged with an attempt at poisoning.
Searles is brother of Mrs Durham, who
has not lived with her husband for some
time, but has been staying at Locking much
against her husbands wishes. Last July
Locklin was arrested upon charge of illicit
relations with Mrs. Durham, the latter's hus-
band being complainant. Locklin was found
probably guilty and was held in 5000 for the
grand jury, bail being furnished This action
led to the separation between Durham and
his wife. Durham was arraigned to-day and
told his own story in a straightforward man
ner that gained him many friends. He denied
all knowledge of the poisoning and that he
ever had Paris green in his possession for that
purpose. He was held for the grand jury in
$500 bail, bonds being quickly furnished.
There is very strong belief prevalent in the
community that Durham has been made the
victim of plot to put him where he cannot
testify against Locklin and Mrs. Durham at
the September term of court. Also that
Searles, who is somewhat weak-minded, has
been used by the originators of the plot as
their cats paw.

MANY IMPROVEMENTS

Rapidly Being Made ON the New York
Division of the Consolidated Road as
Seen From An Observation Car.
By invitation of Isaac Bromley, chief of
the advertising department of the Consoli-
dated road, about dozen newspaper editors
and proprietors of this State accompanied
Superintendent o. N. Shepard and Mr..
Bromley on trip over the New York divi-
sion of the road yesterday. The party went
in the officers private observation car, which
was attached to the 1850 q. m. train out of
this city. The party arrived in New York at
2:15 p. m. and returned on the 8 O'Clock
train out of New York, arriving in this city
at $40 p. m. The object of the trip was to
show the guests the numerous and important
improvements now being made on this divi-
sion, such as the doing away with grade
crossings, erection of bridges and stations,
the four-tracking and rock ballasting of the
road and the doing away with short curves.
One of the most important Improvements
now being rapidly pushed forward is the
erection of signal houses three miles spart,
where system of signalling will be placed
80 that trains can run more frequently and
nearer together and without fear of accident.
These houses will eventually be located
mile and cne-half apart all along the line.
1t Is safe to predict from the rapid improve
ment of the road under the new manage
ment of President Clark and his efficient
officials that it will soon stand second to none
in the world in equipment It is universally
admitted now to be first-class road in every
particular.

THE COMING BIG FAIR

To be Given by Admiral FoOte Post,
G. A. r., In December-The Commit-
tee in Charge Select the Old State
House as the Place For Holding the
Fair.
The big fair of Admiral Foote post No. II,
G.. A. R., to be given in December, will be
held in the old State House. The rooms
which rang with the voices of the States So
Ions of years ago will therefore ere long be
filled with the joyous thousands who will
visit the grand festival. The dancing will
probably be held in the old representatives
hall and here the 1oversof the terpsichorean
art will enjoy themselves to their hearts
content.
The committee which has the fair in charge
met in a room adjoining the town agents
Office in the City Hall last evening. Henry
F. Peck presided and Captain F. N. Lovejoy
was secretary. The early part of the meet
ing was devoted to discussing the advisability
of holding the fair in the old State House
Hon. Lynde Harrison said he had learned
that the directors of the Historical society
had voted unanimously to give the g. A. r.
the use of the rooms subject to such rules for
protection of property as the directors might
suggest. This brought up discussion as to
whether the effect would be to retain the old
State House or pull it down. 1t was voted
to select the State House as the place for
holding the fair.
Judge Harrison reported progress in the
matter of selecting committee Of forty citi-
zens. He has sent out circulars and has al
ready received favorable responses
The matter of appointing business man.
ager was laid over to the next meeting.
Judge Harrison suggested that provisional
committee on music be chosen. Captain A.
O. Hendriek and Major Embler were ap.
pointed.
William T. Fields, cashier of the National
Tradesmen's bank, was unanimously appoint
ed fair treasurer.
Captain David S. Thomas was appointed
lookout committee Of one. He will be con-
stantly on the lookout for the success of the
fair. The next meeting of the committee will
be held Friday evening next. The committee
is working with an ardor which augurs well
for the success of the fair.

The True Inwardness.

The true inwardness of the declination by
President Dwight of Yale of his nomination
to ell one of the fourteen vacancies on the
corporation of the American Board has not
been hitherto published and is as follows: A
request had been sent in for the nomination
of President Dwight to the position 1t was
UNDECIDED, and in explanation it was an
nounced that the request had, indeed, been
received, but too late, as the ticket had been
made up. To remedy the difficulty it was
stated that the nomination would be received,
but President Dwight arose and withdrew
his name, relieving the committee to some
extent Of their embarrassment.
